hi,
Well, yes. you better write functions that take less that 1.45 ms to finish, .. .much less. PD is not multithreaded or asynchron, thats what makes messages deterministic wrt to the audio processing.
hum, that's right but looks like there's no way of achieving some longer operations, in fact, if you know some operations will take time, you just have to thread them,
right, threading makes this possible but is very dangerous when used the wrong way, because it will destroy the determinism of pd programming.
To decide this we would have to know what takes so long to compute...
